Description This is me on my first Christmas... 1953.. 11 months & 2 weeks old. If you look close on the left hand side of the photo you can just see the foot of my teddy that I have used in some of my photos.
The Christmas tree at the time of this photo was at least 50 years old. My dad had bought it off a man that had it on a barrow that played music as the tree turned round. So my dad told us... I even had this tree when I first got married for our 1st Christmas. We bought a new one the year after though and this got passed to my brother.
This is how I remember my Christmases as a little girl. The old tree in the bay window with tinsel and cotton wool for snow.... ahh those were the days. One for you Nigel!


My old teddy

If your gallery is any clue, you still indeed quite uncontainable.

Thats really good, it means one picture is in your wall, one picture is on your DA profile page and one picture is in the hearts / eyes of thousands of your friends

don't forget that was taken in 1953 and that's how a lot of home photography was. I had one taken when I was about 2-3 and it's in colour but you can see how the photographer has touched up my lips, eyes etc as I KNOW my mom didn't put lipstick on me

Aw, you have such beautiful blue eyes! I came across yoru page through a photo of your husbands. It's a picture called "I Spy", that he credited you for the title in.
You two look so happy, and like a fun couple of people.

Deb-e-ann In reply to SoulDuals [2011-02-13 05:25:31 +0000 UTC]

Aww bless. Yes we are happy and still very much in love after being together 8 yrs and married for 2. I don't know if we would call ourselves a fun couple as we don't really go out but we do have the same stupid sense of humour so understand each other very well. I think we would be classed more along the lines of two old farts
This is what I've put up for him [link] I've done a nice one that i'm going to make into a card later for Valentines...although as I said we don't need Valentine's Day to say I love you

Hahah, my fiance' and I have been together for 2.5 years, and have been engaged for 6 months. We knew we would be married one day through the whole relationship, though.
I'm expecting, right now...So we're pretty excited about that.
We used to go to the bars and such all of the time, but I"m ready to settle down. I know 23 is still a young age to settle down, but he'll be 26 in May, so we're both ready for a little family.

Paul and I had already known each other through a mutual friend for 3yrs before we got together. I just knew then right from the start that we would spend the rest of our lives together as we were soul mates. Good luck with the baby. 23 is a good age. I had my first when I was 30 and although he was 20 when my 1st grandson was born I sometimes feel an 'old' grandmother and I'm missing out as I don't have the energy to look after my grand kids. You're still young to enjoy a good life with your children
